Troubleshooting Guide for Stuck Compliance Review on Bybit

What is this issue?

When users attempt to withdraw funds from their Bybit account, they may encounter a situation where their withdrawal is stuck due to a compliance review. This can happen for various reasons, including missing documentation, account verification issues, or internal compliance protocols. During this time, funds can remain frozen, causing frustration for users who need access to their assets.

Step-by-Step Fix

1. Check for Communication from Bybit

   • Log in to your Bybit account and check your email, including spam folders, for any communication from Bybit regarding your compliance status.
   • Look for any requests for documentation or additional information that may have been sent to you.

2. Gather Necessary Documentation

   • If you received a request for documents, gather the required information. This may include identity verification documents, proof of address, or other compliance-related paperwork.
   • Ensure that all documents are clear, legible, and meet the specifications provided by Bybit.

3. Contact Bybit Support

   • If you have not received any requests for documentation, or if the compliance review has taken longer than expected, reach out to Bybit's customer support.
   • Provide them with your account details and explain your situation clearly. Be polite but firm in your request for an update on your compliance review status.

4. Follow Up Regularly

   • After your initial contact, make sure to follow up if you do not receive a timely response. Keeping communication open can help expedite the process.

5. Monitor Your Account

   • Regularly check your account for any updates regarding your compliance review.
   • Be patient, as these reviews can sometimes take time, depending on the complexity of your case.

Prevention

• Complete All Required Verification Early: Ensure that you complete all necessary verification processes when you first create your account. This can help avoid delays later on.
• Stay Updated on Compliance Requirements: Regularly check Bybit’s website or announcements for any changes in compliance requirements that may affect your account.
• Maintain Clear Communication: If you anticipate any issues with compliance, proactively communicate with Bybit’s support team to address them before they escalate.
